Vietnam Pesticides Market to Grow with a CAGR of 4.61% through 2030

Increasing digitalization and precision agriculture is expected to drive the Vietnam Pesticides Market growth in the forecast period, 2026-2030.

According to TechSci Research report, “Vietnam Pesticides Market –– By Region, Competition, Forecast and Opportunities, 2030F”, the Vietnam Pesticides Market stood at USD 1.78 Billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 1.96 Billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 4.61% during the forecast period.

One of the most significant trends shaping the Vietnam pesticides market is the increasing shift toward biopesticides and eco-friendly pest control solutions. As global and domestic regulatory bodies tighten restrictions on synthetic chemical pesticides, Vietnamese farmers and agribusinesses are seeking safer, sustainable alternatives. The government has been actively promoting organic farming and encouraging the reduction of chemical pesticide use to minimize environmental damage and health risks. This shift is driven by growing consumer awareness regarding food safety, along with rising demand for organic and residue-free agricultural products, both domestically and in export markets.

Biopesticides, derived from natural sources such as bacteria, fungi, and plant extracts, are gaining traction due to their lower toxicity, targeted pest control, and reduced impact on non-target organisms. Companies in the Vietnam pesticides market are increasingly investing in research and development to introduce innovative bio-based solutions that comply with regulatory standards. Additionally, integrated pest management (IPM) strategies, which combine biological control methods with responsible pesticide usage, are being promoted as part of sustainable agriculture initiatives. This trend presents opportunities for biopesticide manufacturers to expand their market presence, although challenges such as limited farmer awareness and higher production costs remain barriers to widespread adoption.

Vietnam has traditionally relied on imports for a significant portion of its pesticide supply, particularly from China, which has made the market vulnerable to supply chain disruptions and price volatility. However, there is a growing trend toward increasing domestic pesticide production to reduce dependency on foreign imports and strengthen national agricultural security. Vietnamese pesticide manufacturers are investing in local production facilities, focusing on formulating high-quality products tailored to the country’s agricultural needs. Government policies aimed at supporting domestic industries, such as tax incentives and subsidies for local manufacturers, are further driving this trend. Additionally, collaborations between Vietnamese agrochemical firms and international companies are leading to the development of innovative pesticide formulations that meet local regulatory standards while ensuring cost-effectiveness.

This shift toward local production also aligns with Vietnam’s broader economic strategy of promoting self-sufficiency in key agricultural inputs. However, challenges such as limited access to raw materials, stringent regulatory requirements, and competition from well-established multinational pesticide companies must be addressed to ensure sustainable growth in domestic pesticide manufacturing.

The Vietnam Pesticides Market is segmented into Type, Crop Type, regional distribution, and company.

Based on its Crop Type, The grains & cereals segment is expected to be the fastest-growing segment in the Vietnam pesticide market during the forecast period. The demand for high crop yields, particularly for grains and cereals, is a key driver of growth in Vietnam's agricultural sector. Grains and cereals are essential staple foods in the country, playing a crucial role in ensuring food security for the population. As the demand for these crops continues to rise, protecting them from pests and diseases has become increasingly important. This need for crop protection has led to the growing use of pesticides, boosting the growth of the grains and cereals segment within the pesticide market. Farmers are under pressure to meet the rising demand for these essential crops while maintaining optimal quality and yield, making pest control a critical factor in achieving this goal. The continued emphasis on increasing productivity in the grains and cereals sector, combined with the need for effective pest management solutions, ensures that this segment will experience rapid growth in the coming years..

Based on region, Southern Vietnam holds the second-largest share in the Vietnam pesticides market, following the Central region. This dominance is primarily attributed to the region’s vast agricultural landscape, particularly the Mekong Delta, which serves as Vietnam’s primary hub for rice, fruits, and vegetable production. The high agricultural output, combined with the prevalence of pests and diseases due to the region’s tropical climate, drives substantial pesticide usage. The Mekong Delta is particularly significant in fruit and vegetable cultivation, producing large quantities of mangoes, dragon fruit, durian, and citrus fruits for both domestic consumption and export. These high-value crops require effective pest and disease control to meet stringent international quality standards, leading to increased demand for insecticides, fungicides, and biological pest control solutions. Additionally, the region’s year-round warm and humid conditions create an environment conducive to fungal infections and pest infestations, further necessitating pesticide application. Southern Vietnam is witnessing growing adoption of modern farming techniques, including precision agriculture and integrated pest management (IPM), which are influencing pesticide consumption patterns. Government support for sustainable agriculture and investments in pesticide manufacturing facilities in the region also contribute to market growth.

“Growing concerns over pesticide resistance and the negative effects of broad-spectrum chemicals, farmers are looking for more specific and efficient solutions to address pest infestations.Specialty pesticides, including insect growth regulators (IGRs), seed treatment solutions, and pheromone-based products, are gaining popularity due to their precision and lower toxicity. These products are particularly beneficial for high-value crops such as coffee, rice, and fruits, which require tailored pest management strategies to maintain yield quality. The shift toward greenhouse and hydroponic farming in Vietnam is also contributing to the demand for targeted pesticide solutions. These modern farming methods require precise pest control measures to prevent contamination while maintaining optimal growing conditions. Multinational agrochemical companies and domestic firms are investing in research to develop advanced formulations that cater to these evolving agricultural practices. While the adoption of specialty pesticides is growing, their higher costs compared to conventional pesticides remain a challenge for widespread use, particularly among small-scale farmers. However, as education and awareness about their long-term benefits increase, the demand for targeted pesticide solutions is expected to rise, driving innovation and diversification within the Vietnam pesticides market”, said Mr. Karan Chechi, Research Director of TechSci Research, a research-based management consulting firm.
